Spectra of the fully developed wind‐generated ocean wave field west of central New Zealand

A review of the physical oceanography of the seas around New Zealand — 1982

“…Based Heath-Review of the physical oceanography of the seas around NZ 117 on an extensive ongoing waverider-buoy time series of sea-surface elevations extending back to 1976, a number of theses and papers have been published on the wave spectra (Chiswell 1977;Chiswell & Ewans 1978;Chiswell & Kibblewhite 1980 and wave generation and forecasting (Chiswell 1979).…”

Coastal oceanography and sedimentology in New Zealand, 1967–91

“…This study involved c. 10 years of wave monitoring using a Datawell Waverider buoy moored in 110 m of water close to the Maui platform. It has produced several theses and papers dealing with measured wave spectra (Chiswell 1977(Chiswell , 1979(Chiswell , 1981ChisweU & Ewans 1978;Chiswell & Kibblewhite 1980;Ewans & Kibblewhite 1990) and with wave generation and forecasting (Chiswell 1979). Two of the more significant findings of this study related to the spectral form of the wave data and the strong correlation between the wave spectra and microseisms measured on land.…”
